@MOFO I have the same feeling. Th guys've been on the decline for the past 9-10 years. Admittedly, pretty much all the laptop manufacturers have.

What a joke!
AW has steadily declined over the years not only in quality control but software bugs like we've never seen before .Great job Dell!

Might be a bit optimistic to think that this is an accident.

I'm not sure they're going to patch this. Rather, they may patch this *out* owing to "the best customer interests", "comfortable operation", "an enjoyable experience" etc. Maybe I'm just pessimistic.

Several Alienware m15 R5 laptops are apparently reporting just 4,608 CUDA cores for the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU instead of 5,120. Apart from the CUDA cores, even the clocks, TMUs, and pixel fillrates are being reported to be lower than normal leading to performance loss. Currently, a possible workaround is to flash the VBIOS from an m15 R4 that seems to restore the correct values and performance.
